Just beyond the edge of Prague lies a place you’d never spot from the motorway. Tucked deep into the valley of the Lod\u011bnice stream, Svat\u00fd Jan pod Skalou<\/strong> is a tiny, enchanting village in the Czech Karst<\/strong> with just two hundred residents. A towering limestone cliff looms over it, and Luk\u00e1\u0161 and I recently headed out here for a relaxed afternoon trip.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

We wanted a bit of peace and quiet and to recharge in nature. But I have to confess one important thing right from the start. We came outside the main season<\/strong>, so we couldn’t get inside the famous local church or into the mysterious cave of Saint Ivan. These monuments are only open from spring to autumn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

It didn’t bother us at all though \u2014 maybe quite the opposite. Thanks to that, we had the village and the climb to the viewpoint almost entirely to ourselves<\/strong>, which is a real rarity in this hugely popular spot. Come along with us to see everything you can experience in this gem of the Czech Karst, and how to plan your trip so you don’t spend an hour searching for a parking space.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
